Mix & Match (IX) plus Styling & Shopping Tips

Today, I will sharing a few of my personal styling & shopping tips. Running a personal style blog means being under a public scrutiny and detailing every single item you decide to wear. However, if you are smart and efficient about your purchases you can definitely get bang for your buck.

Closet Rules

First, clean out of your closet. Anything you haven’t worn even once in the past year needs to go [except for your wedding dress, of course!]. This is the biggest hindrance in your path of becoming the next fashion icon. Trust me!

Organize your closest according to the space and utility. For example, I hang all the tops/blouses/dresses which I wish to wear in the season within my immediate reach. Then I organize types of clothing together (t-shirts, tanks, etc.)

I always, always only buy things if they meet all the following criteria:

·It fits you perfectly today [not tomorrow, not in future but TODAY!]

·You absolutely love it! Have no doubt in your heart about it

·You can see yourself wearing it at least 3 times at 3 different occasions [or what I do is divide the cost of the item by the number of times “I think” I will wear it, e.g. Jeans $100 and I will wear it at least 10 times = $10 per wear = Worth it!]

once you are in your thirties ... you think ... you are done making mistakes ... you are done making poor decisions ... you will not make ...
